Good article on a long complicated story that shows how one size fits all rules designed for large 705 ops, cause unintended consequences withg a reduction of system safety for essential service providers. Fatigue is a human performance issue that has to be managed every day.

Compare/contrast: US Dep of Transportation actively supporting airports w/improvements to terminal bldgs. Part of the USD25B for airports in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. In Canada, the Federal Gov collects $500M/yr in "ground rent" & treats air travelers like cash cows.

Tristin Hopper The difference is, incompetent pilots would never make the cut in the first place & those who demonstrate incompetence are fired. Try to do that with a senior public servant or any public servant. Come to think of it, name a single senior public servant fired for anything.

Considering the workforce shortages for AME's across Canada maybe Transport Canada should consider establishing an in house apprentice program to develop AME's ..

Full disclosure: Iโ€™m a member of the ATAC Board of Directors, and I support ATACโ€™s flight and duty time position. Iโ€™m not going to dwell on the positional differences between ATAC and ALPA on this issue. Labour and industry often disagree on the path to aโ€ฆlnkd.in/e48-hbcr

Shocking to see just how much damage a single Gov has done to Canadian businesses from media to oil & gas to air transportation & tourism. Is the objective to have all Canadians dependent on public sector jobs?

When ATC delays routinely add โ‰ˆ60-90 mins to crew duty days, month ends become particularly challenging. As for aircraft maintenance, if pre-planned nightly maintenance is routinely delayed due to late aircraft arrival, maintenance issues accumulate. โ€ฆ3/
